  • Docking Widget which inherits QWidget features.

The Lisp Functions sample describes the creation of a Lisp Function module which inherits OdRxModule and CFxDocumentManagerReactor features.

It also shows how to register a lisp function in a drawing.

For OdRxModule class, e.g.:

OdRxModule::initApp

OdRxModule::uninitApp

OdRxModule::deleteModule

For CFxDocumentManagerReactor class, e.g.:

CFxDocumentManagerReactor::DatabaseAttached

CFxDocumentManagerReactor::DatabaseDetached

OdRxObject::copyFrom

OdRxObject::isA

OdRxObject::queryX

The Editor Reactor sample describes the implementation of a Reactor which inherits CFxEditorReactor. CFxEditorReactor is a subclass of OdEditorReactor for representing an editor reaction. Supports functions, such as:

OdEdCommandStackReactor::commandAdded

OdEdCommandStackReactor::commandCancelled

OdEdCommandStackReactor::unknownCommand

OdEdLispEngineReactor::lispCancelled

OdEdLispEngineReactor::lispWillStart

OdEditorReactor::sysVarChanged

OdEditorReactor::sysVarWillChange


The HelloSCommand sample describes the creation of a simple command named HELLO, which prints "Hello World".

It is recommended to know how to set the name of the command and the execute action.


The DrawCirclesCommand sample describes the creation of a geometry command.
